R0106-HP MSR Router Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide(V7)

• Immediately reboot the device at the CLI.
• Schedule a reboot at the CLI, so the device automatically reboots at the specified time or after the
specified period of time.
• Power off and then power on the device. This method might cause data loss, and is the
least-preferred method.
Using the CLI, you can reboot the device from a remote host.
For data security, the device does not reboot while it is performing file operations.
Rebooting devices immediately at the CLI
Execute the following commands in user view:
Task Command
Reboot the device or a subcard. (On an MSR2000
or MSR3000.)
reboot [ slot slot-number ] [ force ]
Reboot a card, a subcard, or the entire device.
(On an MSR4000.)
reboot [ slot slot-number [ subslot subslot-number ] ]
[ force ]
Scheduling a device reboot
The device supports only one device reboot schedule. If you configure the scheduler reboot at or
scheduler reboot delay command multiple times or configure both commands, the most recent
configuration takes effect.
The automatic reboot configuration is canceled if an active/standby switchover occurs. (On an
MSR4000.)
To schedule a reboot, execute either of the following commands in user view:
Task Command
Remarks
Specify the reboot date
and time.
scheduler reboot at time [ date ]
By default, no reboot date or time is specified.
Specify the reboot delay
time.
scheduler reboot delay time By default, no reboot delay time is specified.
Scheduling a task
You can schedule the device to automatically execute a command or a set of commands without
administrative interference.
You can configure a one-time schedule or a periodic schedule. A one-time schedule is not saved to the
configuration file and is lost when the device reboots. A periodic schedule is saved to the startup
configuration file and is automatically executed periodically.
